The summer pool season has arrived! We’re thrilled to have our outdoor pools open on Saturday across the community. We want to shine a spotlight on our tremendous sponsors who are collaborating with us to bring you great new opportunities. These are VIVA Swim Presented by University Health System and
Sunset Splash sponsored by the San Antonio Parks Foundation.
VIVA Swim is making free group swimming lessons possible for all ages this summer at our City pools.
Sunset Splash means pools will be open an extra hour (until 8 p.m.) on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays so you can splash a little longer. Learn more about these exciting activities by clicking below:
